Clarkson to showcase new 3D Printing and Training Center
Clarkson College invites all UNMC colleagues to attend an open house event on Wednesday, Sept. 28, from 4–7 p.m. to explore its new 3D Printing and Training Center.
Attendees will have the opportunity to tour the space and learn about partnership benefits. The event will take place in the Interactive Learning Center, located on the third floor of the Clarkson College main building at 42nd and Dodge Streets.
The mission of the 3D center is to create pathways to utilize 3D print and visualization as a language in health care. The facility offers multiple methods, including the creation of 3D models using medical scans such as MRIs and CTs, as well as interactive virtual models that can be accessed via a personal link.
Prints and reconstructions can be ordered by medical professionals or community members, and all scans are reviewed by a committee of certified radiologists. Learn more online.
